was lively, Ouyang Zhi's little servant Laiwang also came over to say hello, and Lin Zimo hurriedly asked him: "What is the number one son-in-law of your family?" Lai Wang smiled: "So that Lin Gongzi knows that my son-in-law has won the third place, and he can go to Fucheng to take the test with a few sons." ”

Lin Huaiyi's father and son don't have enough eyes, and they don't know what has happened to Lin Huaide's family after not seeing each other for a few months. The three Lin Zihao brothers have always been grateful to this elder brother, no matter what the eldest uncle and eldest aunt have done, this is always the brother they recognize. Lin Zihao stepped forward to invite: "Brother Hall, let's go to Fucheng together in half a month." ”

Li Ziwen felt very uncomfortable in his heart, these younger brothers who looked up to him at the beginning have all grown up and even surpassed him, and in this family, he is no longer called the eldest brother, but the cousin. However, his honest and gentle temperament made him jealous of his younger brothers: "Okay, I'll go back and kowtow to my grandmother in a few days, and then our brothers will go to Fucheng together." "What his mother did, he didn't know that it was wrong, and his heart was very painful for a while, but what can be done? After all, it's his mother, and he can only do his best to remedy it.

The Lin family's new house was lively, the patriarch and the elders with status were sitting in the hall talking and laughing loudly, Lin Huaide was accompanied by a smile, and on the big kang in the next room, there were several old ladies in the village, chatting with the Huang family. Huang's face is full of spring breeze, although it is only a county exam, but the selection of three children in a family is still unheard of in the county. This time, the dilemma of the return of the wolf bèi was completely washed away, and he raised his head again in the village. The people surnamed Lin who came to congratulate also held their chests high, and now that they have walked out of the village, the envious eyes of people from other villages have not passed for several generations.

The patriarch repeatedly asked for a big job, but the Lin family refused, and the Huang family came forward and said: "When a few babies win the show, my family will definitely do it, and now I am afraid that the children will be arrogant, so it is better to keep a low profile." ”

In the courtyard, the Zhou family commanded Lin Fu's family, Xiao Miao, Lin Yu, and a few other women who walked around, kneading dough, chopping meat, cutting vegetables, and preparing steamed white bread. The customs here in Linjia Village, there are happy events that are not done with much fanfare, and each family in the clan will have a male owner who comes to sit on the door, and the main family will give a few buns to the people who come to congratulate them and press them back. The steamed buns of the Lin family, with thin skin, large pork and cabbage filling, and pure white noodles, caused a sensation as soon as they came out of the pot, and a group of little babies looked in tightly around the gate, constantly swallowing saliva in their mouths.

Although the basic life of Linjia Village has been guaranteed, meat is still rare, and such white bread, which is almost all meat, is rare to see during the New Year. Now the yield is low, only one season a year is planted, the wheat is even more expensive, the farmer steamed buns, it is rare to see the meat filling, not to mention, the white noodles are often mixed with stick noodles, etc., so the Lin family pressed back the buns to make gifts, for them, it is simply the supreme delicacy.

Lin Zimo was upset sitting in the room, and he left rudely, just in time to see the drooling of the little babies. Lin Zimo smiled immediately, and just took the opportunity to leave the noisy hall and came to the courtyard to wave at the dolls: "Come on, line up, and send a big bun to one person." "With the current living standard of the Lin family, it is no problem to manage the buns of the whole village, and of course Lin Zimo will not be stingy with a few children.

The little babies were wide-eyed, not believing that there was such a good thing, and when Lin Zimo was greeting, they lined up and waited for him to send buns.

Just as everyone was happily watching the little babies scramble for buns, a discordant voice sounded: "Whose ignorant babies are these, are they coming here to grab food?" ”

Lin Zimo frowned, this voice was so familiar, and when he looked up, the aunt who hadn't seen him for a few months got down from a small donkey cart, followed by the uncle and the lobby brother with a vegetable-looking face.

Although he was reluctant in every way, but the basic politeness had to be maintained, Lin Zimo stood up and bowed slightly: "Uncle, aunt, brother in the lobby" The aunt snorted, didn't even look at Lin Zimo, twisted her fat body, and walked into the yard. The uncle behind him hurriedly said: "Where is Zimo busy?" Ignore your aunt, she's like that. ”

The eldest aunt in front jumped up with a "whoosh", startling the children who were receiving the buns, and they didn't care about receiving the buns, so they hurriedly dispersed. The eldest aunt sat on the ground, took out an embroidered handkerchief, covered her eyes and cried like a play: "My life is miserable!" Married into the Lin family for more than ten years, there is no merit and hard work, and now, everyone treats me as a fool - the man is not angry, and a large part of the family business is cheapened by the old immortal. Oh my God! You don't let people live! "Singing, doing, chanting, and fighting, from time to time secretly through the cracks in the handkerchief, to see the reactions of the people in the yard.

Oh, Lin Zimo understood, this is yesterday when I heard the uncle and them go back and talk about the changes in the family, and today I came to find a bargain. The people on the third floor outside the courtyard gate watched the excitement, the Huang family had already walked out of the hall, trembling with anger, Lin Huaide was busy holding her and comforting: "Mother, don't be angry, you go and sit in the house, I'll take a look." Zhou's face was also pale: "Yes, mother, your body is important." ”

Seeing that Lin Huaide was so filial, the patriarch and the elders were also pleased. The patriarch stepped forward and asked, "Lin Huaiyi, you haven't come back since you split up, and you cry when you come back, what are you doing?" Lin Huaiyi's face was blue and red for a while, and he stammered: "Patriarch, no, it's nothing, just look at my mother." ”

The patriarch looked at him and sighed: "Look at your mother's opinion? Are you angry that your mother is here? Lin Huaiyi lowered his head in shame and muttered speechless. Liu got up with a bone: "It just so happens that the patriarch is here, let's ask the patriarch to be the master." The patriarch looked at her with annoyance: "What do you want me to decide?" "If he could, he wouldn't want to look at this woman.

Liu pointed at the Huang family: "I want to sue my mother-in-law for partiality and leave such a big family property to the second son, regardless of the eldest son, I ask for a redivision of the family property." Lin Ziwen secretly dragged his mother behind: "Mother, what are you talking about?" Let's go back. Liu shook off his hand: "A pair of wrecks and wastes, so that people don't know how to resist when they ride on their necks and, they deserve your share of the family property." ”

The patriarch supported his forehead: "Liu, the Huaide family's property is what you get after you split the family, and it has nothing to do with your family." Liu pinched his waist and pouted: "It must be that my mother-in-law took out some heirloom after my house left, otherwise why is the second room so developed in a short period of time." This heirloom also has a share of mine. ”

Zhou stepped forward angrily and said, "What heirloom?" When such a big thing happened at home, what else did you not know? This family business was earned by Zimo selling prescriptions, and it has nothing to do with you. Of course the Liu family knew this, but how could he get some cheapness, his eyes rolled and said: "He is a small child, what kind of medicine house is there, it must be an heirloom." Zhou had no choice but to repeat Lin Zimo's words. Only then did the villagers who were watching know the reason why the Lin family's wealth came, and they couldn't help but talk about it.

Seeing that he couldn't take advantage, Liu played a scoundrel: "I don't care, when Zimo got the prescription, he hadn't broken up yet, and I had to have a share of the money, otherwise I would go to the court." ”

The patriarch's eyes became stern, the clan finally came up with such a smart brothers, and he had to rely on them to win glory for the clan, he would never allow anyone to destroy it: "Liu, don't mess around here, in such unreasonable trouble, I will open an ancestral hall to expel you." Liu was stunned, knowing that what the patriarch said was not a lie, and he didn't dare to sprinkle it at the moment, but he didn't want to let go when he saw Lin Huaide's big house. sat on the ground and cried: "My hard-working son, although you are admitted to the county examination, but you don't have the money to go to the government examination, instead of watching others develop, it is better to go with your mother!" Woo-"

The Liu family changed their strategy, and the patriarch had no choice, not to mention that Lin Ziwen was indeed admitted to the county examination, if he could take the government examination together, maybe another student would be added to Linjia Village, and he turned his head to look at the Lin family at the moment.
